NAME
       quota - display disk usage and limits

SYNOPSIS
       quota [ -guv | q ]
       quota [ -uv | q ] user
       quota [ -gv | q ] group

DESCRIPTION
       Quota  displays  users' disk usage and limits.  By default
       only the user quotas are printed.

       -g     Print group quotas for the group of which the  user
              is a member.  The optional

       -u     flag is equivalent to the default.

       -v     will display quotas on filesystems where no storage
              is allocated.

       -q     Print a more terse message, containing only  infor-
              mation on filesystems where usage is over quota.

       Specifying  both  -g  and -u displays both the user quotas
       and the group quotas (for the user).

       Only the super-user may use the -u flag and  the  optional
       user  argument  to  view  the limits of other users.  Non-
       super-users can use the the -g  flag  and  optional  group
       argument  to  view only the limits of groups of which they
       are members.

       The -q flag takes precedence over the -v flag.

       Quota reports the quotas of all the filesystems listed  in
       /etc/fstab.   For  filesystems that are NFS-mounted a call
       to the rpc.rquotad on the server machine is  performed  to
       get  the information.  If quota exits with a non-zero sta-
       tus, one or more filesystems are over quota.

FILES
       quota.user located at the filesystem root with user quotas
       quota.group located at the filesystem root with group quo-
       tas
       /etc/fstab to find filesystem names and locations
